I hope this is a Pixel 7 problem and not a general Pixel problem cus I was planning on getting the 4xl or 4a 5G sometime in the future
No, it's just for tensor pixels.
Pixel 6 and later with the "not too great" modem.

Price of your item(s) doesn't determine the handling fees to be paid on NIPOST, weight of item & location are the determinants, but in all i think #3,500k is much, ask around for people that have recently purchased within your location & know whether its same or they're trying to reap you off

I think they do have range of handling fee measured by weight, i paid #500 for a 1.5kg item few months ago & #200 for a 0.17kg item last month, location is Onitsha(Anambra State, in all i think #3,500 is just too much no matter the location
Item is mi band 8 o.
Not up to 0.5kg sef
Thanks

Yes,he advertised at 125k,I negotiated to 120k because of the screen gap,which is a good deal indeed,I told him I was willing to take the risk,but not the risk of a bad battery swelling,because he assured me the phone was working perfect and the battery was not the reason the screen separated.
Infact he denied even ever knowing the phone had screen gaps,it was like I was the one that pointed his attention to it.but it was later I got to know in which be admitted when I laid the complaints that 2 nairalander rejected the same phone because of the screen gap.
But a phone with a swelling battery is not something I am willing to risk 120k on.that is more like a scrap device.
Well he called me tonight, threatening to go to his lawyer tomorrow,i would be waiting for his feedback,he can afford a lawyer,but he can't afford a replacement battery or even a refund,telling me fuckboys is the account he used to sells phones and saying I am dragging @ColdXAutoLtd which is the business name,if you intend to clear your name,fix my issues,I would retract my statements.but since this is the only language you understand.we move.
Good riddance.
Lawyer ko, lawyer ni.
Whether fuckboy oo, coldXAutoLTD o
As far as it's a one man business, and both names belong to him then he's fully liable.

I met this fraudulent seller call @fuckboys on jiji,where he advertised a working perfect Google pixel 5,upon inspection,I noticed the pixel 5 had a screen gap,which he @fuckboys claimed he knew nothing about,but I know pixel 5 series had screen gap issues which Google themselves replied it was a normal thing and a none issue,so I brought the device at a good deal from him after he gave me his assurances that the phone was working perfectly and I won't have issues.
I gave to an engineer to help seal it back,which the engineer did,I asked from the engineer if he thinks it's a battery issue,but the engineer definitely not a Google expert told me he does not think so.
After a couple of days,the screen gap appeared again,which occured to me that this was a battery issue and not the Google pixel 5 screen gap defect.
I reached out to @fuckboys calmly explaining to him.i gave him a good solution that if refund would be an issue,I would be willing to return the pixel 5,add money on it and get a pixel 7a,he promised to get back to me,he went on all platforms he advertised and mark all the items as sold.called me back to tell me there is nothing he can do for me,that the deal is gone,I even gave him the option to purchase a new battery and fix it,he told me to go to hell.
I reminded him that he assured me the phone was in good working condition and a phone with a bad battery cannot be termed such,he told me i should do my worst,there is nothing he can do.
Later I found out from someone here on nairaland he tried to sell the same pixel 5 to them twice and he was made to know that there was a screen gap,which he denied to me on the first day we met to do the transaction.
@fuckboys is a very dishonest seller,only interested in collecting payment and has no interest of customers at heart after payment has been received.
I know of sellers on this platform who offer excellent after sales service
Based on the fact he knew before hand as regards the issue of the screen gap,but when we met he denied he never knew the screen has gaps.
This is very terrible and dishonest if true and his silence is deafening.
As a learning point for you, never buy a phone based on promises and assurances β€”only buy for what you can see.
You see a screen gap, you move aside.
120k would've gotten you a 4a 5g which is basically a 5.
Sorry for your loss and thank you for the bringing this to light πŸ•―οΈ.

One would wonder why you rushed to marked the phones as sold.
Was it because you were informed that the pixel 5 you sold on jiji has battery swelling issues,after you assured the buyer there was no issue wrong with the phone that was it was a normal screen gap,
Because a mention was made to add money on the pixel 5 to get a pixel 7a,now items marked as sold.
Wait, this story no clear.
You bought pixel 5 from him that has battery swelling issue and he advised you to add money to get the pixel 7a?

Igemburg:
Good day guys, let me shed light on the issue on ground.

Some Google pixel devices came network locked and getting a network locked pixel is cheaper than factory unlocked.

So some guys buy the cheaper locked. The device can be unlocked either temporarily or permanently
The temporary unlock I think is what the guy did here, the temporary unlock works but when you factory reset or update your phone, it locks back.

The permanent unlock is expensive and no seller will want to spend that amount to unlock.

So if you want to buy any pixel phone, ask seller if it's network unlocked, if he says yes put your SIM, factory reset and see if it brings network or not

OYA I DON UPDATE UNA, WHO GO BUY ME DRINK pLAIDIS?
If you hear WWU or software unlock, please run oo.
If the option to unlock bootloader is greyed out, still run except you can confirm it is FU with the IMEI

Or you're fully aware of what you're buying and okay with it.
That's all.

Guys, whenever you're buying a used phone, always do a factory reset on the spot before paying.
Let the seller know you're going to factory reset it and if anything happens, you're not going pay.
Also try as much as possible to buy FU phones only.
A word is enough for the wise.

partly true , partly coz most companies removed sd card from phones so consumers will up there storage preference & that's money for the companies . If it was all about cloud , we'd have marketing strategies focusing on the services but instead we're getting as much as 2TB on a phone .
For Google is about their cloud subscription, there's no other reason why the p8p starts at 128gb.
Subscription income >>> one time purchase.
BTW, Android 14 is out.

Check out Williams1000. Never bought from him though. So, ask for the heavies on the OfferUp thread to vouch for him before sending money.

Edit 1- I think I misspelled the name. Lemme just look for the post where the pixel I was talking about is being sold.

Edit2- https://www.nairaland.com/williams10000


That's the guy. But his post about the 6 Pro appears to have been deleted. Not sure why
It is too good to be true boss.

On paper you are right,
Real life usage, performance is identical on both,if any diffrence just a tiny lil bit.
Yeah, but since the difference in price isn't that much anymore, I'd say he should just get the 5.
I also love the back panel finish of the 5.
Just saying

Ram? I am partial to asun, sir. wink

Dunno why, but the Pixel 5 and 5a 5G got bad reps on the GSMArena comment page. Folks curse the motherboard, battery scarcity and everything else.

The fella you are advising might be better off getting a Pixel 4XL. It has a dedicated telephoto zoom that I use to peep at the astronauts on the moon as they dem baff for backyard. Dem sure got big blokos that will be giving alien pusdy trouble grin

Sure, you can still zoom on the 5 and 5a 5G, but it is not the same thing. Or he can gather like 160K and get a Pixel 6a tokunbo. Or better still he can meet Williams1000 with 240K and get a tokunbo Pixel 6 pro.

Or even better still, he can wait till the Pixel 8 series drop next month and that will crash prices small.
240k for pixel 6 pro??
Where abeg?

Anyone using Pixel 4a 5G here?

Please drop your honest review about the camera and battery life. Thanks.

This is my first time going for a Google pixel phone.
If you can, just get the 5.
Higher Screen RR
Symmetrical bezels
Bigger battery
Perfect size
More ram.

My question is can the camera of Google pixel be affected when it falls? There's something I noticed, the front camera isn't as sharp as the back camera, is this a general case? Pixel 5 in focus here.
Pixel front cameras don't have AF. Also, it should be great under adequate lighting

Normal type charger should work. But if you want the so called 18w fast charging, you need a PD charger.
